Also a Catholic, also an adult convert, only married 3 years. Not using contraception has been amazing in bringing us together so far. Obviously 3 years isn't long, but the impact seems profound. Happy to take emails from anyone intere

When I studied cello performance in college, my professor would joke that the 40 David Popper etudes were my new bible. However, I think a copy of Bach's six cello suites is a better match. In my work in math education, there are many

Because a representation of this can be published as a book, I'll say the six cello suites by JS Bach. After a strange, 15-year journey, I eventually understood one of Peter Kreeft's proofs for the existence of God, "There is

Hi! I had serious problems from becoming gradually more sedentary through a desk job and less laborious lifestyle. I didn't have the same type of pain you describe, but I had some issues particular to my shape and proportions. My life

I think the parent used "customer success" as a reference to the job function of interacting directly with clients and serving as a channel for feedback. This type of work often affords one the opportunity to develop product impro

I find the book "Absolute Java" by Savitch to be rather readable for a textbook about a language. The author doesn't seem too self-serious. Grab an older edition for cheap. I am curious if anyone else likes/dislikes the

A decent voice teacher can help with that. Not everyone can be Frank Sinatra, but you can learn to sing well enough to join an amateur choir if you desire. To find an inexpensive voice teacher, look up the information for a voice professor

I don't do body building (taking a narrow definition of the term), but I do heavy (for me) barbell lifts as part of my regular exercise routine. For some anecdata, I consistently find myself in a better frame of mind after lifting as l

I wouldn't be surprised if Sheen picked it up from Lewis, as the former certainly admired the latter!

See my reply above regarding the second paragraph - it's a good question. Regarding the final paragraph and implicit assumptions regarding the veracity of the content of the four canonical gospel accounts, I am not sure attributing it

I think lucozade's reply (just below yours) gets closer to why Sheen's argument matters at all (admitting that it is more of a, "Hey, have you thought about it this way?" than a serious argument, the latter of which Shee

The fact that Bayes' work, which is more popular and possibly relevant than ever, answers a serious philosophical challenges to claims about the nature of reality (a consequence of any claims of divinity) is a mere historical accident

I agree with you, but I think the parent was saying that even controlling for one's ability to successfully do a thing, some things (i.e. those that are more strenuous or otherwise require more commitment) take longer to solidify as ha

Hi - I only checked out the introduction, but I think you are right that this is a far superior form compared to traditional video. I make things like this for product trainings with my company using a graphical tool (Articulate Storyline),

The fallacy here is that causing harm is intrinsically bad. Causing harm can be legitimate or illegitimate. Guns are designed for sport or to cause harm, and the fact that the latter is sometimes used illegitimately does not change the legi

Thank you. An important distinction. The same idea gets me going in discussions about turnover rates among football teams. (Teams tend to regress to the mean year-over-year in how often they fumble, so some writers insist fumbles are "

I studied cello performance at my university and delved into the world of instrument design when searching for my current cello with its low-five-digit price tag. It is a pretty cool blend of art and science. Folks on HN might like to check
